On Friday, December 1st 2023, the Faculty of Cultural Sciences (FIB) Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) encouraged students who were in their final exam period (UAS). To ease the burden on the minds of their students, FIB UGM handed out free snack parcels along with the provision of small greeting cards. This initiative results from a collaboration between FIB and Suar Asa, with the hope of providing moral support to students who may be too fixated on preparing for exams and forget the importance of taking a short break.
The distribution of free snacks before UAS is considered a positive step by the faculty to support students’ mental and emotional well-being. FIB UGM is committed to providing quality education and paying attention to students’ overall welfare. This simple action from the faculty was warmly welcomed by the students.
“We feel supported and loved by FIB UGM, please do it more often” explained one of the students who received snacks during the distribution event.
The snack distribution agenda before the final exam period aligns with UGM’s commitment to accelerate the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) point 3, namely Good Health and Well-Being.
